News Article About JW Couple's Cake Business

[Stoffer]

It's always nice to read a light-hearted news article but it is especially so when it is one that deals with our brothers and sisters. The article source was taken from:

I've copied and included the text here as per usual. The article is mainly about married couple Patrick and Sarah Mulcahy and how they started their own ice-cream cake making business. (Bold italics mine).

 

Lakeland couple makes ice cream sandwiches with a twist

 

By Eric Pera Posted Jun 21, 2017 at 3:31 PM Updated at 8:20 AM

 

Using a catchy name and pure, wholesome ingredients, a Lakeland couple has methodically crafted a business built on an enduring, frozen novelty – the ice cream sandwich.

Patrick and Sarah Mulcahy stumbled on the idea for A Cow Named Moo roughly three years ago, driven by desperation to earn income while devoting much of their time to their real passion – serving as volunteer sign language interpreters at church.

Today, the Mulcahys say they’re making ends meet by selling their sweet treats at several retail locations in Lakeland and Winter Haven. They’re also finding growth in the wedding business.

″(Customers) say, ’We’re not cake people,″ says Sarah Mulcahy, 39, who, like her husband, never made ice cream until they formed their business.

What my heart says:  "Ooo...looks soo scrumptious!"

What my hips are saying: "There's blueberry yogurt in the fridge; eat that!"

Ice cream should be the real deal or not at all (look at the ingredient list on some of those store bought buckets and you get nightmares). And, it is not diet food, so eat it sparingly and enjoy it, it's good for you in all its creamy sugary egginess.

I can't wait for the new world...for multitudinous  reasons....in the top five is....ice cream in all of

its deliciousness...bring it on!

eat all the ice cream we desire to eat, and we won't gain an ounce of weight...right, right?..........HOORAY!

I doubt it will apply to them as they are not personalising the cakes. Plus, the couple you mentioned in Norn Iron could have protected themselves if they had stated in the company policy that they only provide certain types of cakes. Here's a quote from that same Telegraph article you quoted and might come in useful for other Witnesses with similar businesses:

Crucially, the courts found that Ashers could potentially have refused the order had it limited its offer, only selling cakes for birthdays or other specific events for example.

I recall eating ice cream sandwiches as a little girl and

today there are many "so-called" healthy ice cream sandwiches from

fancy shops, whole foods and the like! 

 

But this sounds really healthy!  Yum - I have to share this article.

I wish I had the recipes to these specialty ice cream since I have an ice cream maker I'd love to use some time before the GT!
